Chapter Ninety-Eight: Assessment or Difficulty?
The old, hesitant voice of Semiramis's father began to echo through the square. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
"My daughter, Semiramis, was found in a forest more than 10 years ago and brought home, and during this time, I have always treated her as my own daughter, and have always cared for her with care. ”
"But now, now that I am very old and may be taken away by death in my sleep at any time, then, before I die, as a father, I need to find a good partner for my daughter so that she can continue to be happy. ”
"Among you, there may be warriors with unparalleled martial arts, perhaps multi-talented poets, perhaps merchants with thousands of dollars in wealth, or unparalleled kings in the world, demigods who can run rampant on the land and gallop for thousands of miles. ”
"But there is only one daughter of mine, and I will only give her to the best of you, regardless of his age or his birth, and if he can pass the subject set by my daughter, then he will be my daughter's husband. ”
As soon as Semiramis's father's words fell, whistles, cheers, and urges sounded like a tsunami below, and the whole of Ascalon fell into a frenzy.
"Oh-oh-oh-oh!" "Miss Semiramis, I'm going to win." "Hurry up and announce the title, I can't wait!"
After a few minutes, when the crowd had fallen silent, Semiramis stepped forward and took her father's words.
"As my father said, only the best of you will be my husband. ”
"And this time I will set up three topics to test my future husband, and only after passing all three tests can I be qualified to become my husband, otherwise, even if your father is a god in heaven, he will not be able to make me Semmy Ramis submit. ”
Semiramis said in a languid and crisp voice, searching the crowd without leaving a trace, and as she swept over where Alice stood, her eyes lit up, and then she quickly moved away, and she began to announce the subject of the examination.
Last night, Alice had a good discussion with Semiramis about how to set up levels on these tests to make it more difficult for those competitors, and most importantly, how to open the back door for Alice.
Although Semiramis is very confident in Alice, and Alice is also very confident in her own strength, this is not a reason for the two to be careless, for the two who like to plan and then act, everything that can be used will not be let go at will.
"There may be natives of the Two Rivers among you, and there may be foreigners from other places, but you must have heard that name, that one called Tiamat. ”
As soon as Semiramis said this, the crowd below burst into an uproar and heated discussions among themselves, especially when they heard the name Tiamat, even Gilgamesh raised his eyebrows, Cyrus stopped smiling, and Ninas's face turned blue.
"Do you want us to die?" "I'll quit!" "Damn, she's a poisonous woman, she's playing tricks on us." "Do you want us to die?" "This is simply a conspiracy of Ninas, a conspiracy to rule us and then the whole of the two rivers. ”
Amidst the curses and indignation, the crowd in the square suddenly decreased by more than half, and they left the place as quickly as they could, as if there was something terrible here, and they were terrified.
Tiamat was not an ordinary name, it was a god, a god who was not ordinary at all, a god feared by all the creatures that lived in the valley of the two rivers, no, it was not just a mortal thing, even the gods trembled at the sight of this name.
Tiamat, who usually appears as a large dragon with five dragon heads and a bipedal wyvern-like tail, in this case, each of her heads has a different color, white, black, green, blue, and red, and her massive torso is dotted with beautiful stripes of these colors.
Legend has it that she created the Tigris River, the Euphrates River, and even the huge god realm in the void that carried the two god systems of Sumer and Babylon.
But even if she really created the place where the gods lived, don't think that she is a good god, because even the gods can't know if there is such a thing as reason in her body, and she always carries out her evil deeds without purpose, turning everything that has nothing to do with it to ashes.
Although she has a good relationship with many gods, there are many gods who have her blood in their bodies, and they are all her descendants, even Gilgamesh's two-thirds of the god's blood.
"Please be quiet. After waiting for a while, when the crowd had left a large part, Semiramis spoke again to the rest. "The assessment doesn't require you to deal with Tiamat, it's an existence that even the gods can't fight against, and can only look up to. ”
"After the signing of the Treaty of the Gods, even Tiamat could not directly interfere with the main plane, so my assessment was to bring a part of the monster created by Tiamat to me. ”
When Semiramis had finished speaking, the crowd below began to quarrel again, for in their eyes it was a simple obstacle, an impossible task.
For in the records, although Tiamat was the creator of many gods, she had no reason to destroy her creation, without any reason or for any purpose.
So she created all kinds of monsters. They are Mushumahei (the big snake with seven tails), Bashumu (poisonous snake), Mushufuxiu (dragon with a scorpion's tail), Lahaimu (monster of the sea), Ugalulm (giant lion), Uridinem (rabid dog), Kilittaburil (scorpion), hurricane, kulir (mermaid), and bison, among others.
If it's just a simple monster, it can't make such a noise in the crowd below.
As mentioned earlier, these monsters were created by Tiamat in order to destroy the gods, and they can also be called gods.
For ordinary humans, these monsters that can also be called gods are insurmountable difficulties, but for others, although it is very difficult, it does not mean that there is no way, they can find the gods behind them to help, and in the case of using a common enemy, those gods will not be stingy to provide some insignificant help.
